MMR IPOX results between effusion CBs and surgical pathology specimens were concordant in 45 of 53 (85%), inconclusive in 6 of 53 (11%), and discordant in 2 of 53 (4%) cases. CONCLUSIONS.— There was high concordance of MMR IPOX testing between cytologic and surgical specimens, with no false-positive and 2 false-negative CB results. Limited tumor cells, staining in cells indefinite as tumor, tumor staining heterogeneity, and lack of internal control staining were problematic in some cases. Our findings indicate that cytologic effusion specimens may be suitable substrates for MMR IPOX biomarker testing; however, inconclusive cases need to be interpreted with caution.CONTEXT.— Cancer staging provides critical information for patients and treating physicians to battle against cancer, predict prognosis, and guide treatment decisions. The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system uses a tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) scoring algorithm and is the foremost classification system for adult cancers. This system is updated every 6 to 8 years to allow sufficient time for implementation of changes and for relevant examination and discussion of data validating those changes in staging. OBJECTIVE.— To review the updates in the 8th edition American Joint Committee on Cancer staging system on hepato-pancreato-biliary cancer. DATA SOURCES.— Literature review. CONCLUSIONS.— The 8th edition, published in 2016 and implemented on January 1, 2018, has been in use for approximately 2 years. Compared with the 7th edition, some of the changes are quite radical. This review aims to provide a summary of the changes/updates of the 8th edition with focus on hepato-pancreato-biliary cancers, and evaluate its performance through literature review.CONTEXT.— This article presents a review of noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features (NIFTP), including its separation from follicular variant of papillary carcinoma of the thyroid, its evolution, and current definition and pathologic characteristics. OBJECTIVES.— To emphasize the understanding of the concept of NIFTP as a neoplasm based on molecular analyses, its critical histopathologic features, the microscopic findings that exclude the diagnosis and the importance of complete sectioning of the tumor to exclude neoplasms that should be diagnosed as carcinomas. Important distinctions are discussed including difficulties with literature that shows NIFTP with metastases, inadequacy of sectioning of the tumor, and lack of descriptive histology of the surrounding thyroid and possible other lesions. DATA SOURCES.— Review of articles in the English literature on NIFTP, as well as comparative papers showing differences and distinctions between this entity and papillary carcinomas. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/pd-1-pd-l1-inhibitor-3.html CONCLUSIONS.— This article concludes that with the current state of knowledge on NIFTP with studies from all over the world, this entity is a low-risk neoplasm that, when diagnosed using appropriate criteria, should not be associated with metastatic or recurrent disease, at least on intermediate length of follow-up. This review includes discussion of multifocal NIFTP, as well as the recently defined micro-NIFTP (1 cm or less), and describes features of the tumor that remain to be studied and correlated with outcome oncocytic variants of NIFTP, percentage of allowable solid areas of growth in the lesions, and definitions of true neoplastic papillae and hyperplastic ones and how these should influence the diagnosis of NIFTP.Parental attitudes and behavior can impact infant media use, though all existing research examines this after the baby is born. However, many studies suggest that prenatal attitudes and behavior can influence parenting practices around many different types of parenting decisions. This study examines whether this extends to parenting practices surrounding media use during infancy. Participants consisted of 170 mothers who completed a number of questionnaires at two time points (prenatally and when infant was ∼16 months old). Results revealed that parents had many concerns about media before their child was born. More supportive prenatal attitudes regarding using media as a coping strategy was associated with higher levels of infant media use and technoference (i.e., when media interfere with the parent-child relationship). Additionally, prenatal media use by mothers was associated with higher levels of infant media use, but lower levels of technoference. Finally, prenatal depression was associated with higher technoference, while parental efficacy was associated with higher infant video chat. Implications of the study include discussion regarding media use at medical office prenatal visits and creating a family media plan before the birth of the child.Objective To investigate the effects of dextrose prolotherapy in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Design A prospective, randomized-controlled interventional trial. Setting An outpatient pain medicine clinic. Participants The study included 66 patients aged 40-70 years with chronic knee pain refractory to conservative therapy and diagnosed as Grade II or III KOA according to the Kellgren-Lawrence classification. The patients were assigned to the dextrose prolotherapy group (PG; n = 22), saline group (SG; n = 22), or control group (CG; n = 22). Interventions The intra- and extra-articular dextrose prolotherapy and saline injections were administered to the PG and SG, respectively, at 0, 3, and 6 weeks. The patients were blinded to their injection group status. A home-based exercise program was prescribed for all patients in three groups. Outcome measures The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scores, activity pain, stiffness severity measured using a visual analog scale (VAS), and the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) scores measured using the Short Form-36 (SF-36) subscales were recorded at the baseline at the baseline, 6-week, and 18-week follow-ups. Results The WOMAC-pain and VAS-activity pain scores decreased significantly in the PG compared to the SG (p = 0.002 and p less then 0.001, respectively) and CG (p less then 0.001 and p less then 0.001, respectively) at 18 weeks. The WOMAC-stiffness scores decreased in the PG compared to the CG at 18 weeks (p less then 0.001). The WOMAC physical functioning scores were improved in the PG compared to the CG at 18 weeks (p less then 0.001). The physical component scores of the HRQoL were significantly improved in the PG compared to the CG at 18 weeks (p = 0.016), but the mental component scores of the HRQoL showed no significant differences. Conclusions These findings suggest that dextrose prolotherapy is effective at reducing pain and improving the functional status and quality of life of patients with KOA.
